Universal Viewer - Lister alternative

Yes, it works (with some failures randomly), and yes again,
I suggest to consider the sort order in TC to get a very handy tool !

I may read sort order from %Commander_path%\wincmd.ini (fixed name!), but I also need to custom sort my StringList (containing filenames) using that order. That's hard to do because TStringList has not custom-sort feature.

Thank you to try !

Sorry, it has.
I'll make this an option: sort by name or by extension (default), maybe by date.

1.3.5 (26.06.06): opening of Unicode-named pictures;
"Image background" option;
option in Viewer.ini "FileSortOrder": 0: sort files by extension (default), 1: by name

Show of icons larger than 32x32: it's bug in Delphi VCL.
I'll try to find a way to workaround it.

Hello !

• Well ! Thank you, all new options work.
- I can browse the dirs. by extension, and begin at any file in the groups.

• About icons, I guess that a size-limit could be defined, let's say 72x72; beyond, the most icon-programmes don't support them (but 256² is displayable i.e. in XnView, although such icons are useless !)

I can define this limit as icon's size. So the 72x72 will be any icon's size and icon won't be clipped. But smaller icons won't be aligned right. Is ot OK?

1.3.5.1 (26.06.06):
work around Delphi bug: option in Viewer.ini "MediaIconSize": maximal width/height of icons (*.ICO)

2Clo
Default is 64, but you may set it to 72.

OK, 72² works too if set ! Thank you !
- This took a weight off ours shoulders

Hi Alex,

using 1.4.0 beta of the ATViewer I get
* an unload error using SynPlus plugin 2.7.3
* an exception message box using Fileinfo plugin 2.07
when I close the Viewer by ESC.

Hello Alexeï !

• With 1.4.0, just opening the "Configure plugins" box, I get an access violation.
- The list of installed plugins is empty.
- Each time I click a button (any) on the box, the access violation message comes back…

- Tested with TC 6.55-ß2 - Win XP-Pro SP1.

Oh, maybe the problem is in Delphi. I remember that default lib for ListView control must be patched, or we'll have such AV.
I'll send you new beta by e-mail.

I think the problems are in plugins.
I have wrote to SynPlus and FileInfo authors.
Mail from Fr. Gannier is returned back - how to contact him?

Yep ! Please, check your mail ! Don't send anything today as attachment at any address!
